Yeah I've got a 2am showing, or something. Getting too old for this LOL...
-
Not too heavy on spectacle, I concur with the statement about character and depth. But see it anyway...
-
With their video on a 47 minute run time, I don't care if they have the secret to the whole movie; ain't nobody got time for that. Bullet points people, bullet points...
-
It also prompts you to think about how you'd be in situations like theirs....
-
And I quote: "liar!"
-
Exactly. Gotta love a character that doesn't take himself or the universe he's in too seriously...
-
WOW

I see what you're saying, but I was sincerely asking if there was a Luke figure with only one hand. I find that funny for some reason...

There's a Bespin Luke? That's hilarious!

Are you guys talking about the TOS television show or the cartoon? I don't see the TOS television show as being free of pain or societal ills. If anything, Roddenberry's Trek showed me a universe full of the same murderous hatred and danger that could be found right here on good 'ol mother Earth: biggotry, fascism, genocide, misogynism, slavery, weapons of war and mass destruction; sounds like more of that "doom and gloom" BSG if you ask me. You can't have a story about the exploration and evolution of man via travel through space and not expect to encounter a bloody nose, or two. Maybe some of you guys should rewatch Encounter at Farpoint and Q Who and listen to Q's message. If I want a sickly sweet story about a bunch of people flying through space in safe adventures to find the nearest cotton candy cart I'll go watch Voltron or something. Not Go Lion mind you, but Voltron, because that universe is nice and pain free yet full of techno-action. Most important point of all? Doom, gloom and cute girls in skin tight space uniforms sells; the mass public will not embrace an utopian styled Trek, if it's even willing to stomach 'Trek on a weekly basis at all anymore, AND AT $6 A POP. Just my three cents...

Battlestar Galactica Discussion IV with Blood And Chrome
myk replied to 505thAirborne's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Yeah I guess you're right but....where did the time go. It's surreal when I try to look back on it all... -
Thanks for the tip, Chris. I bought two of the blue/white ones and a Halloween one as well...

Life is pain, highness. Anyone who says differently is selling you something...

Well, what I took from Eastman's experience is that he, too, changed after he tried to obtain inner peace the "old fashioned" way; and if you think about it, that same philosophy of peace and compassion led him to his fate. Again, I am predicting that Morgan's newfound philosophy will be put to the test; furthermore I am expecting Morgan's new outlook on life to fail-miserably...

Battlestar Galactica Discussion IV with Blood And Chrome

I can't believe it's been what....over 12 years since it debuted? Man, am I getting old... -
What a creepy dude...
-
Eastman's fate could be seen as being contrived. I also look at it as part of a growing list of tradgedies that show how controversial Morgan's adopted philosophy is...
-
F**k it. I'm in...
-
I wonder how far they will take Morgan and his dilemma: trying to value life in a world that doesn't value life. This has the potential to be some GREAT t.v....

The Jedi coulda used those kids when Vader came after them. 'AZ thanks for the info. Where are you reading this stuff anyway?
-
They pretty much stood there and stared at him while he was painfully destroyed. What a first class group of people...
-
Skull scheme is sold out. Damn...
-
Seriously. That, or any number of things they could've done. But hey, dramatic Walking Dead episode is dramatic.

Or maybe Star Destroyer. I'd love to see that on the kid's soccer jersey...
